Pickles by the Million.

1t is an old saying with Long Island
farmers that land is worthless th at will
not grow white beans, but grower OF
Huntington has discovered that pickles
will thrive in soil where beans refuse
to sprout. He had barren, sandy
spot upon which he made the expert
ment and with such success that
all his neighbors have extensive fields
blooming with their crisp favorites.
Nowhere in this country can picklesfbe
grown that equal in quality those
Long Island, and Boston, Detroit aid
Chicago deal exclusively in them from
this point. In the four establishments
at Greendale alone there will be cured
this season over so, 900, 900 pickles. The
factory just being finished will be tho
largest in the country, and will have a
capacity of 30, 900, 900. A picking fac
tory at Huntington has capacity of
10000, 600, one at Farmingdale Is ,000,-
900, and another at Central Park 10, :
100000. The market was very high at
the beginning of the season, the price
being $3.50 per thousand. 1t has since
fallen to $1.25. The average price will
be thirty cents thousand greater than
1 that of any other season, or 81 so.
Dealers are now offering for the entire
crop, without regard to any accident.

haps the sight most pleasing to the eye
will be that of the great electrical foun-

main building. From the apex of q
stone shaft twelve feet high column OF
water issues in the form of an aquatic um-
brella. beautifully illuminated by a
crown of incandescent lights, over
which the water flows as it takes its
concave form. From the bank about
the hower-decked basin twelve jets oil

Under the central blaze of the lights in

shafts meet and break the water is

Conjugal Episode in France.

The facts in a conjugal episode as
related by d Paris correspondent
make rather interesting reading:
A certain M. Perrin, large, stall
wart brute, was possessed OF mania
for inAicting corporal punishment up
on his much better half whenever she
had the misfortune to displease him.
The poor woman stood it as long as
she could, patiently and proudly, for
they were not in the lowest ranks OF
society-M. and Nine. Perrin. She hes
ltated long before determining to have
done with an alliance not only dis
tasteful but painful to her. But hav-
ing made up her mind to rebel once
for all, she could not persuade her.
self to do SO without getting as nearly
even with her husband as she might.
1t was hard problem how she should
accomplish revenge that should be
condign and fitting. She found her
way at last, and it was worthy OF her
French birth and Partisan training.
Knowing her lord and masters habits,
she bided her time until one night he
came home late very drunk. He could
just disrobe and tumble into bed be-
fore he was fast asleep. Then Nine.
Perrin, who had provided herself with
course needle and ball of Irvine,
went to work. She sewed and
sewed patiently and firmly,
and when she stopped, after an
houror two oisteady work, the drunken
monster was as completely tied up as

that considerable resistance could not

She said; 'you cannot stir. II you
could do not think you would be
able to appreciate the entertainment

raised broom in the air and brought
it down with all her might on the back
OF her PROSTATE lord. The first blow
brought from him lively cry OF pain.
She said not a word, but delivered
another stinger in the same spot. The
strong man writhed and howled, but
the woman relented not. Again and
again that broom rose in the air only
to come down mercilessly on arms

She beat him until she was exhausted

The Great Niagara Crash

V An exchange says l sssf 4
The portion of the rugged bank
nearest the Horseshoe falls, on The
Canada side, known as Upper Table
Rock" fell at midnight lastnight with
e deafening crash, that was heard and
ii he conclusion felt for q mile away
Thousands OF tons OF solid rock fell
into the gorge below, and with II huns
dreds OF tons of ice. The extact posi-
tion OF the break is between the Pro-
spect house and the great Horseshoe
falls, Just above the old Table Rock
and next to the spiral stairway lead
ing to the path behind the sheet
of water. It was only by a miracle
that the stairway was not demolished
The governments iron railing for oF-
er $50 feet was carried away. It IS nf
this very spot that nearly al the WISH
tors stand and get the inspiring view
Had this fall OF rock occurred in the
daytime, doubtless a heavy loss Of
life would have occurred. The lorna
ton of the precipice is now entirely
changed. One can now stand On the
bank and see behind the heavy sheet
| of water into dark chasm. The
| greatest curiosity is manifested by the
| villagers and tourists, and thr0ngs Of
| people are moving to the spot A
mass of limestone and slate 1000 feet
in length by about go feet in width
and ITO feet deep is piled in q heapine
mass below. One hundred and TWEEN
ty-three thousand yards OF rock is
calculated to have fallen. The sup
posed cause of the rock giving way IS
the low water, steady freezing weather

Towels for congressman.

Using towels is an unsupported Mar
nia with congressman. The Washing
ton correspondent OF the New York
Sun says: Congress was in session
about $40 days. and according to
the wash bills, used 138,550 towels,
an average OF about GOO per day, or
more than two per member IN atten-
dance. There is not q hotel III the
country where so many towels are
washed per day as in the house OF
representatives, nor in which so much
money is paid for washing them. The
total expenditure for this purpose by
the house of representatives last year
was S2,770.95 for washing towels
alone. The first part of the year fifty
cents a dozen was paid. but in the
spring the price was put down to
twenty-five cents q dozen. The work
is not let by contract. but is given out
by the doorseeper to whomever he
pleases and paid for at such prices as
he may fix. The position OF washer
woman IN the house Representatives
Is an honorable and lucrative one, and
in times past ladies OF social standing
have not been ashamed to take the
work and have it done by their
servants while they lived comfortably
on the proceeds. No complaint IS
made that such is the case now, but
not many years ago a doorkeeperw was
found to have given the towels OF the
house of representatives to lady
friend, TO be washed at fifty cents q
dozen, who had women employed in
